Windows 10: Why has my google short cut Icon photo disappeared on the icon?

For some reason my photo is a blue figure on my shortcut but the other users still have their photo on our home desktop, When I open the shortcut I do have my icon, can someone please tell me how to get my icon back?

The short cut icons on my screen have somehow been duplicated into my task bar. How can I remove them?

 

Google Drive icon disappeared from notification area on right side of taskbar

Dear ArleneL,

Welcome to the Microsoft Community



I understand the importance of having quick access to your Google Drive icon in the notification area of your Windows taskbar and the inconvenience caused by its sudden disappearance.

To resolve this issue, please follow the steps below:

1. Check Hidden Icons:
   
   • Click the up arrow (^) located in the notification area to view hidden icons.
     
   • Look for the Google Drive icon among the hidden icons. If you find it there, you can drag and drop it to the visible area for easy access.
     
2. Reset Notification Area Icons:
   
   • Open the "Settings" app by clicking on the Start button and selecting the gear icon.
     
   • Go to "Personalization" and then click on "Taskbar".
     
   • Scroll down and click on "Other system tray icons".
     
   • Find Google Drive in the list and ensure that the toggle switch is turned on.
     
3. Reinstall Google Drive: If the above steps do not resolve the issue, consider reinstalling Google Drive Sync following these steps:
   
   • Uninstall Google Drive from your computer through the Control Panel or Settings.
     
   • Download and reinstall Google Drivefrom the official website.
     

If after doing these troubleshooting steps and only the Google Drive icon is showing up with this issue, I suggest you head over to the official Google Drive forums and post a query, they may be able to provide more specific guidance on the issue you're facing.

When making a short cut for my desktop how do I find more icons to insert as "change icon" It currently only shows "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe". Where are the MS icons or others. I am just looking for an icon for camping, at the moment.
